March Accomplishments

March has been a good month for me. I was able to take a day off during Spring break to quilt up several quilts. I also got binding done on several others. I made my nephew Payton a bag for his birthday.

Both sides were so cute.
I made myself a new wallet. I really love this pattern and planning to teach a class on how to make it.
All the pockets are great.
I made a former co-worker/friend a baby quilt.
I finished up the binding on the Brighten Up snowball quilt.
I quilted and finished the binding on this baby quilt.
I started a new EPP handwork project. I'm using a charm pack and some background. I have all 7 "blocks" done now and am ready to piece it together. I LOVE how it's turning out, although I should be working on my other projects.

I finished the Buckeye Beauty and a neighbor offered to buy it, so I quickly did the binding.
I also put a label on it.
I bought this frame at a quilt show last year and finally printed out some of my favorite quilts to put in it. I love the look!
Most of the month has been spent piecing this beauty. I am making it for a retiring coworker.
I was super excited that my center came out perfect on the 1st try!!
I added the background in and now I just have to add borders to the top and bottom to make it longer. I hope to quilt it on Good Friday.

My Stash Report is doing pretty well. Most of what I bought was for samples. I'm really excited to try StarStruck and make Amethyst Project bag and the Tudor Bag. I really need to use the fabric the kids bought last month so I can count the yardage!
